So I was googling around to try and remember what model of Toshiba (and pretty darn sure it was a Toshiba and can almost remember the face of the user manual) laptop was my first. Mostly out of curiosity so I searched around a bit and came to Toshiba's history site.. this was cool except .. wtf?.. what's this timeline blabbing about? They think they had the first laptop computer? .. they think they had the first color laptop? First laptop with a CDROM?!.. um.. "But our passion for innovation is hardly new. In fact, it dates back a couple centuries," ok wait a sec.
Does anyone here know if Toshiba actually had any firsts like this? I mean maybe they're calling it a Laptop on purpose instead of portable (Osborne) or first color (Commodore SX-64) but even the first laptop sounds wrong.. wasn't that a Grid clamshell computer?.
I'm a bit astonished although I can't claim to know everything but it seems like quite a stretch or can someone calm me down? lol http://laptops.toshiba.com/about/history-of-innovation#
